Hey there, Sounds like you are getting the right mileage. The V6 likes to run right around the 3000rpm mark. I have gotten as high as 38mpg on the highway.
As for the meets, we just gather round and talk cars for a bit. Exchange info and then once we are all there we go out for dinner or just for coffee. I think I am going to see if we can set up a meet to go see the movie "Driven"
We will be there this Sunday Rain or Shine.
